Publication number: 20240210133Abstract: A header for a heat exchanger and method for cleaning a heat exchanger in a loop without disconnecting loop components is provided. The header is in flow communication with the heat exchanger for distributing fluid through a plurality of adjacent channels. The header is connected between a main heat exchanger inlet nozzle and a channel flow distributor. A filter element is disposed within the header between the nozzle and channel flow distributor. Under normal operation, the filter element removes particulates and fouling material from the main flow stream before it enters the heat exchanger channels. During the cleaning process, fluid is injected on or through the filter element to remove particulates and fouling material through at least one outlet port. The header arrangement allows the filter element to be ‘cleaned in place’ without draining the system and disconnecting the heat exchanger or other components from the flow loop.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 15, 2023Publication date: June 27, 2024Inventors: Matthew David Carlson, Blake Lance, Parker Riley Lyons, Dereje Amogne, Aaron Wildberger

Patent number: 11900120Abstract: Systems and methods of selecting a collection of compatible issue-ready instructions for parallel execution by functional units in a superscalar processor in a single clock cycle. All possible instructions (opcodes) to be executed by the functional units are pre-arranged into several scenarios based on potential resource conflicts among the instructions. Each scenario includes multiple groups of predefined instructions. During operation, concurrently for all the groups, an issue-ready instruction is identified with reference to each group based on group-specific selection policies. Further, based on the identified instructions, predefined policies are applied to select one or more scenarios and select among the picks of the selected scenarios. As a result, the output instructions of the selected scenarios are issued for parallel execution by the functional units.Type: GrantFiled: March 24, 2022Date of Patent: February 13, 2024Assignee: Marvell Asia Pte, Ltd.Inventor: David Carlson

Patent number: 11868262Abstract: A memory request, including an address, is accessed. The memory request also specifies a type of an operation (e.g., a read or write) associated with an instance (e.g., a block) of data. A group of caches is selected using a bit or bits in the address. A first hash of the address is performed to select a cache in the group. A second hash of the address is performed to select a set of cache lines in the cache. Unless the operation results in a cache miss, the memory request is processed at the selected cache. When there is a cache miss, a third hash of the address is performed to select a memory controller, and a fourth hash of the address is performed to select a bank group and a bank in memory.Type: GrantFiled: February 9, 2023Date of Patent: January 9, 2024Assignee: Marvell Asia Pte, Ltd.Inventors: Richard E.

Patent number: 11816448Abstract: An ALU is capable of generating a multiply accumulation by compressing like-magnitude partial products. Given N pairs of multiplier and multiplicand, Booth encoding is used to encode the multipliers into M digits, and M partial products are produced for each pair of with each partial product in a smaller precision than a final product. The partial products resulting from the same encoded multiplier digit position, are summed across all the multiplies to produce a summed partial product. In this manner, the partial product summation operations can be advantageously performed in the smaller precision. The M summed partial products are then summed together with an aggregated fixup vector for sign extension. If the N multipliers equal to a constant, a preliminary fixup vector can be generated based on a predetermined value with adjustment on particular bits, where the predetermined value is determined by the signs of the encoded multiplier digits.Type: GrantFiled: January 27, 2021Date of Patent: November 14, 2023Assignee: Marvell Asia Pte, Ltd.Inventor: David Carlson
